In a rapidly evolving technological landscape, it's imperative to establish frameworks that comprehensively map the long-term consequences of emerging technologies. This requires collaboration across disciplines to move beyond opportunistic viewpoints and develop evaluation mechanisms that account for the social, economic, and environmental impacts of technology. The challenge lies in creating participatory spaces to explore these issues and disseminate the findings effectively.
To facilitate meaningful exchange about these topics,, we organized Revision, an interdisciplinary conference bringing together leading experts in blockchain, AI, and big data. Beyond providing information, the conference aimed to foster critical analysis of how these technologies can drive social impact, address challenges to democracy in the digital age, and promote citizen participation.
To complement informative sessions such as roundtables, panels, and keynotes, we incorporated experimental methodologies through workshops. These workshops encouraged participation, facilitated insights, and provided direct engagement with industry experts. Additionally, exhibitions and performances explored the topic from various artistic perspectives.
